Since the source in this case is identical, having separate modules for this seems out of the way. Classifier really is the right way to distinguish between different flavors normally, but obviously this doesn't work well when you have to produce the artifacts from separate mvn invocations. It feels to me like we need some better support in Maven to handle these types of multi-platform builds, but I'm curious how people are handling it now?
Given they are separate executions, there isn't much Maven can do. To throw out some ideas, a "partial deploy" that only deploys new attachments and reuses metadata is one option, but potentially unreliable with sequencing. I'd think you're better off being able to pass in a "forced" timestamp and build number rather than having Maven allocate it (would help for all those wanting to use svn rev or CI build number instead too). If you still want to use the Maven metadata, something will need to query the repository to figure out what to use itself.
